Visualization for Microservice flow

I have an application made of multiple microservices. I would like to visualize it for newer developer to understand the flow chart.

In some previous experiences, I have seen people draw flowchart like this one below.

Question: What is this kind of flow chart called?
Is there any software tool that can draw it?

This diagram is called "sequence diagram". You can use https://www.zenuml.com for creating sequence diagram. It comes with a super-developer-friendly syntax and is real-time.
